Please help I use a stout pick to pull one of the ends outward enough to get another pick in between the clip and the collar, they come out easily after that. Be careful to retain control of the clip as they can spring out rather forcefully. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhg Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Hi Jon Did exactly what you said and it worked I used a scriber with a slight bend at the end Cheers BHG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
